Diet: Snack Smart
“Choose the right snacks, like nuts,” says celeb nutritionist Oz Garcia, who works with celebs like Kim Cattrall. “They’re full of protein and healthy fat to help control hunger between meals.”
Good choices include almonds, which are high in calcium, — or pistachios, which are relatively low-cal.
Workout: Time to Target
“Start to zero in on specific areas,” says DavidBartonGym owner David Barton (members include Pink).
For a great behind, try deep lunges. Step forward with right foot, lower left knee until one inch above floor; rise and switch sides. Try completing three sets of 10 per side.
